Good point Jab. After all DR was a previous director of W2T so he is well placed.

Scientists are investigating green ways to manage the nation’s growing waste problems.
According to scientists in Bangladesh, it is possible to generate 18.22 million tons of clean hydrogen fuel from millions of tons of annual waste. If it turns out to be possible, it is estimated that the move could lower the country’s fossil fuel energy import bill, which is presently Tk 614.77 billion ($7.2 billion).

The country has over 227 million tons of waste annually.
The waste management problem in Bangladesh is severe and transforming some of it into clean hydrogen fuel is one of the ways in which scientists are exploring to help the government manage it.

Bangladesh joins other countries including Australia, Japan, Germany, Japan and South Korea that are making a strong push to implement this eco-friendly fuel into their economies.

A pilot project on a hydrogen power plant is reportedly already underway in Bangladesh. The Tk 489 million ($5.7 million) hydrogen energy research project commenced in 2017 and is expected to generate hydrogen from 2021.

The plan is to generate 5 megawatts (MW) of power from the hydrogen produced in June 2020 to meet the demand for the research plant and later supply it to the nation’s energy grid.

The clean hydrogen fuel will be produced from urban biomass.
Hydrogen liquid and hydrogen gas will be produced from urban biomass using a photo catalisation method. Poly waste, household waste and natural waste (e.g. leaves, twigs, etc.) and natural water can be used to produce the hydrogen. It is believed that 0.10 kg of hydrogen can be produced from a liter of water through photocatalysis, which is expected to cost from $2 to $8 per kilogram.

“Use of hydrogen will reduce the dependence on coal,” Power Cell Director General Mohammad Hossain told bdnews24.com.

“We’re now talking of green energy; and hydrogen is portable too. I see the future in hydrogen energy,” he said.

Hi long-term and stokey, great posts and discussion. W2T seem to be coming in for a little criticism which I do not share. PHE can't do everything themselves and I am of the opinion we wouldn't be where we are without KA historical input and potentially W2T on board but time will tell. I don't evisage much risk with the planning application given the comments we are aware of and the fact that this could be ground breaking technology which could be in high demand sooner than later. GLAH

looking at the trades there have been 75000 and 100000 purchases but surely that's not the reason for the rise. We will see in due course. Glah

just seen that buy, thanks for pointing it out. Very interesting and also that the price didn't move. Perhaps an order being filled and the price will move now. Always thought it a bit odd that the price has been fairly stagnant given the news flow and potential. Glah

From the September RNS. Still a few weeks to go in Q4.

AFC Energy (AIM: AFC), the hydrogen power company, will be attending the 2019 Solar and Storage Live event, at the NEC, in Birmingham on the 17th to 19th of September. AFC Energy will be appearing alongside Multi Source Power, exhibiting its hydrogen power solutions, including the Company's new off grid EV charger system, CH2ARGE, set for release in Q4 2019.

Mike Copson, Hydrogen Business Development Manager at Shell
Dr Graham Cooley, CEO, ITM Power

The good thing about this RNS was the number of key stakeholder comments.

I see this as good for PHE, i.e the fact that the biomass facility has gone through all the approvals

The Ince facility is located within Protos, a £700m energy hub owned by Peel L&P Environmental. BIG also controls a co-located waste wood processing facility at Protos with its fuel supply partner. Together with BIG’s waste wood plant at nearby Widnes, these facilities dominate the regional demand for waste wood fuels.

Hamish McPherson, chief executive officer, Bioenergy Infrastructure Group, said: “This is not only an important milestone for Ince, but also represents a key step forward in the development of renewable energy in the UK. I would like to thank all our contractors, subcontractors, suppliers and partners for their contribution and support throughout this process.”

Councillor Michael Edwardson, the mayor of Ellesmere Port, said: “I am delighted to be here to mark the launch of the operational status of the Ince Bio Power Facility. Ince will generate clean, base-load renewable energy for the people of the north-west England. This is an important moment in the development of gasification facilities in the UK, which are a sustainable alternative to incineration.”

yes just had the notification rns

Hi folks, I actually like the new site and think it shows things are moving. When looking at the old site I thought it was in need of update. Glah

Great work chippy will take a look when I can.

Top two Major Shareholders
Schroder Investment Management Ltd 47,501,000 (10.60%)
Ervington Investments Ltd 39,610,494 (8.84%)

From 29 Aug RNS.
At present, De Nora has confirmed it has the ability to supply requested electrode delivery for the initial
placement and commercialisation of AFC Energy’s fuel cell system, including the EV charger
demonstration, expected to be delivered in Q4 2019.
Luca Buonerba, Chief Marketing and Business Development Officer at De Nora, said “Supporting the
emergence of hydrogen as one of the enabling factors of the energy transition towards the full
decarbonisation of the planet is a key growth driver for De Nora. Our collaboration with AFC Energy is
a key part of that strategy. Over the past few years, De Nora has invested substantial resources into
the development of a commercially viable alkaline electrode tailored to AFC Energy’s requirements,
exploiting the deep IP and know how deriving from our market leading position in other industries and
decades of R&D. The results achieved by the two teams over the past three years fully backs our
collective investment in delivering a commercial electrode technology to springboard the emergence of
AFC Energy’s fuel cell technology into today’s and tomorrow’s energy market.”

I concur with your views of the legislation Ven & Chippy. Lets hope its not required.
Members’ power to require directors to call general meetings
4.—(1) Section 303 of the Companies Act 2006 (members’ power to require directors to call general meeting) is amended as follows.
(2) In subsection (2)(a) and (b), for “the required percentage” substitute “5%”.

Some good Twitter feed and interesting developments. Glah
